E had her 7yo checkup this morning

She is doing great. Dr. G is very pleased with her rate of growth. She is consistently underweight but tall. So her growth is within normal limits. E just hit a spurt which might explain why she seems so light. We had to buy her new shoes a couple of weeks ago as she was popping out of hers. We also added a bunch of clothes to her "too small" bag.

As of today:

• E is at the 38th percentile for weight
• and the 60th percentile for height.

To show how far she has come in the last 4 years:

• E was less than the 5th percentile for weight
• and less than the 20th percentile for height when she first arrived home.

She was 22lbs when I got her at 2 years 10 months of age and was just a wee wisp of a child. E is a wisp no more. After yesterday's swimming lesson, I am tempted to start considering upping those lessons since she seems to have an aptitude for it...and the flippers for feet to match! :)
